Current #9 ranked player Luke Mitchell will be joining prep school Montverde Academy, in Florida.

The 6ft 0″ Point Guard has shown to be one of the UK leading players in his position consistently performing on the international stage for England, where he will now turn his focus on conquering the USA next season.

At last summers camp Mitchell averaged 7.83 PPG, 2.83 RPG & camp high 4.21 APG where the steady lead guard is glad his hard work has paid off and is excited to start a new chapter in Florida.

“It’s great to see that my hard work has paid off and there are people who believe in me and believe that I have something to offer. My goals while I’m out there are to improve as a player all around and get noticed by a college to hopefully gain a scholarship to a college so I can continue to play at a high level.”

Mitchell also believes that more exposure is needed in the UK as the talent is here.

“I think it is really important to get as much exposure as possible whether it be through people, getting game tape or performing well at camps such as DENGTOP50. There is a lot of talent in England which doesn’t get noticed due to a lack of exposure!”

 

From everyone at DENGTOP50, we want to wish Luke all the success in the USA.
